SAS Staff Recognition Week: 3rd – 7th September….celebrate with the PSA

Recognition Week is coming up soon and the PSA will be again promoting the wonderful work you do and encouraging the school community to recognise you and thank you.

Did you know…the PSA started recognition week?

Back in the early 2000s the PSA launched the first ever SAS staff Recognition Week which is still going strong today!

The PSA has always promoted the value of SAS staff through supporting you in the workplace and your yearly pay rise, fought for and won by the union, to major advancements like the work value pay case of 1993.

Recognition Week is a great PSA initiative that we organise and celebrate each year for our members.

What is your school planning to do?

You will all soon be receiving your PSA packages for recognition week.  Let your Principal and P&C know the Recognition Week dates so they can plan a thank you for the SAS staff.

Keep your eyes out over the next few weeks for the recognition week materials and let your PSA organiser know if your school is planning an event.  The 3rd to the 7th of September is the perfect time to get together and celebrate your contribution to the school you work in.

Having a PSA SAS Staff Recognition Week event at your school?

If your school is having an event or morning tea and you would like your organiser to attend get in touch so we can schedule it in.  Make sure you take lots of photos and we will promote you and the work you do as well.

PSA: fighting for pay equity

As members would know the PSA is running a pay equity case for SAS staff.  We are taking on this complex and lengthy case because we believe that men and women should be paid equally for work that is of either equal or comparable value.  We will be providing a more comprehensive update on the case in the coming weeks.
